- What do investors and buyers pay for?And what do they quietly discount?
- Which decisions build value or erode it?Hiring, pricing, equity splits, runway, and the choices that compound.
- How do you show progress before there is a valuation?The evidence that makes the next round, or the eventual sale, an easier conversation.
